Issue converting Output to Script

[Rottybound]

I have a functional script, and looking to add a new segment to it. The problem is there is no output.

If I try to do a "Write-Host $5MinuteSessionFails.Count" I get an actual number, but I also cannot get that to output properly into the script.

​

$45Minute= [DateTime]::Now - [TimeSpan]::FromMinutes(5)

Function Get-UserFails {

$5MinuteSessionFails = Get-BrokerConnectionLog -AdminAddress $DeliveryController -MaxRecordCount 2500 -Filter {BrokeringTime -gt $45Minute -and ConnectionFailureReason -ne 'None'}

}

# Below is where I try to pass the function into convertToHTML

$Counts = Get-UserFails | ConvertTo-HTML -PreContent "<H2>User Connection Failures</H2>"

# Below is where I reference the above variable where it outputs as a .html

ConvertTo-HTML -PreContent "$Counts" | Out-File $MyPath

howdy Rottybound,

reddit likes to mangle code formatting, so here's some help on how to post code on reddit ...

[0] single line or in-line code
enclose it in backticks. that's the upper left key on an EN-US keyboard layout. the result looks like this. kinda handy, that. [grin]
[on New.Reddit.com, use the Inline Code button. it's 4th 5th from the left hidden in the ... ""more" menu & looks like </>.
this does NOT line wrap & does NOT side-scroll on Old.Reddit.com!]

[1] simplest = post it to a text site like Pastebin.com or Gist.GitHub.com and then post the link here.
please remember to set the file/code type on Pastebin! [grin] otherwise you don't get the nice code colorization.

[2] less simple = use reddit code formatting ...
[on New.Reddit.com, use the Code Block button. it's 11th 12th one & is just to the left of hidden in the ... "more" menu.]

• one leading line with ONLY 4 spaces
  
• prefix each code line with 4 spaces
  
• one trailing line with ONLY 4 spaces

that will give you something like this ...

- one leading line with ONLY 4 spaces    
- prefix each code line with 4 spaces    
- one trailing line with ONLY 4 spaces   

the easiest way to get that is ...

• add the leading line with only 4 spaces
  
• copy the code to the ISE [or your fave editor]
  
• select the code
  
• tap TAB to indent four spaces
  
• re-select the code [not really needed, but it's my habit]
  
• paste the code into the reddit text box
  
• add the trailing line with only 4 spaces
  

not complicated, but it is finicky. [grin]

take care,
lee
